Islamabad
Pakistan leg-spinner Usama Mir, who has played for Lahore Qalandars, has condemned remarks by Rawalpindiz skipper Mohammad Rizwan, who said Hyderabad Kingsmen “didn’t deserve” qualification for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 11 playoffs. Rizwan’s remarks came in the aftermath of a difficult campaign for his side, who managed just one win in 10 matches, including a heavy defeat to the Kingsmen in their final league-stage fixture. Speaking during the post-match media conference, Rizwan reflected on his team’s inconsistent performances and the overall competitiveness of the tournament. He emphasised the importance of consistency and momentum in high-pressure matches, while also noting that opposition teams had performed strongly in certain conditions, particularly in Lahore.
